Rangers' Beltre belts 408-foot HR from one knee

HOUSTON -- From one knee, Adrian Beltre cleared the Crawford Boxes.

The Rangers slugger dropped down to get to Brad Peacock's pitch and crushed his 30th home run of the season from a kneel Tuesday night, giving Texas a 1-0 lead over the Houston Astros in the second inning.

ESPN Stats & Information estimated the homer would have traveled 408 feet if it didn't clank off the wall beyond the seats above the left-field wall.
